I was disappointed. Yes, it is by the beach. But the internet service was unacceptable. They had something (construction?) making a grinding noise off and on. The continental breakfast was mediocre.

Great stay in a lovely room with warm welcome.

We were welcomed warmly to the hotel.Our room was huge and looked directly onto the beach. There was a choice of bath and shower or level access shower. All the staff we met were friendly and the reception area has been refurbished since our last stay with a new breakfast room and bar. The room was clean with good heavy curtains.
